Dick Gregory starts his set just before 7:00 into it and that's exactly why neoliberalism means nothing in the Rockhouse. Either bring the real thing or we don't want it.
Cadillac Man is fond of observing liberalism is not about preserving the Wall Street status quo; it's not about preserving any kind of a status quo but rather moving toward a better future. Neoliberals do not seem aware there even is a future. As you saw from the election, no-one except Sanders talked about building anything except that idiotic wall.
I've run this recording previously because Lewis Black gives an excellent performance but, in this one particularly, Dick Gregory was shining. He's inspiring but he's funny.
"When you see fat homely flight attendant on your next flight, we did that." - Dick Gregory
Note: some are too young to remember when airline flight attendants were stewardesses who had to look like Playmate of the Month or they wouldn't get the job. Now practically anyone can get the job if you're qualified to do it.
Gregory speaks about how black people got the vote before women. Well, well, well.
Liberalism isn't now; it's always the future.
